"Bach's Cello Suites represent the absolute pinnacle of the cello repertoire and provide many lifetimes of possibilities.
The great cellist Pablo Casals, is reputed to have practised the suites for a mere 12 years before giving any public performances! They are extraordinary in that with just a single line Bach weaves together two, three or sometimes four individual voices to create a contrapuntal masterpiece, and herein lies the challenge for the performer, to bring each of these voices to life without losing the continuity of the musical line." ~ Andrew Joyce
